8Bonifacio, Corsica, France
Bonifacio, located on the southern tip of the French island of Corsica, is a stunning medieval town perched on high limestone cliffs that drop dramatically into the Mediterranean Sea. Known for its narrow streets, historical buildings, and old fortress, Bonifacio offers panoramic views of the coastline and Sardinia in the distance. The cliff-top town appears to almost hover above the sea, with some houses extending right to the edge of the cliff. Visitors can explore the town’s ancient citadel, walk along scenic coastal paths, or take boat trips for unique views of the cliffs from below.
